Updating - Twitter Style
By Sherryness | September 3, 2008
Wow - you know it’s been a long time since you updated your blog when you go to the admin screen and have to log in because your blog forgot about you. oops
I’ve been Twittering a lot lately - so blogging in short bursts here.
Charlie had professional assessment - Hears just fine but does not process what he hears in his brain correctly. Any auditory input gets garbled before it can be understood correctly. Additionally has sensory integration problems (which we all know).
Charlie has weekly sensory integration and occupational therapy appointments now.
Charle has an appointment with a neurodevelopmental specialist on October 6th to diagnose what might be going on with him, neurologically - and to possibly rule out suspected autism and ASD - though I strongly suspect a diagnosis of ASD from his symptioms - or at least PDD with learning disability - or auditory block - or something….. I wish I knew……
Charlie started special ed 1st grade today - I really like his teacher so far.
Charlie has behavioral psychologist appointments regularly with a private pschologist.
Charlie has speech therapy through the school district.
I have been working my butt off on Blog Solace (stay tuned for the hosting and the plug-ins packages - it’s about to seriously ROCK!)
I have been working my butt off on some partnership projects I can’t officially take credit for, since I was subcontracted - but it’s been an awesome experience - each of them.
I feel like I’m getting a cold - rah.
I have become throroughly addicted to Twitter and following/being followed by people in same/simliar/complementing lines of work.
I have become even more mad for WordPress, if that’s possible.
Relationship with Nicholas remains steady and rocky and completely over and completely renewed, depending on the time of day or something.
New friendships fall away, sadly, because of just above.
I’m now a CSS Goddess.
Goddess rhymes with WordPress and CSS - especially with the French pronunciation of God-Dess`.
Lately I crave apple pie cheesecake, though I’ve never had it.
I’m tired and should really go to bed.
I have bloggorrhea…..
Christian Bale
By Sherryness | August 25, 2008
Turns out I’m not in love with Christian Bale - I’m just jealous.
I wish I could make my living being completely closed off and unemotional. I mean, it’s second nature to me anyway. It started out as a hobby/defense mechanism and just kind of took hold.
I could do it on film - I’m sure I could. Why does *he* get to be Batman???
Train Ride!
By Sherryness | August 24, 2008
Charlie and I went out and about this morning before the rain started. We went to the Railway Museum in Snoqualmie, then took the train ride to North Bend, then over to Snoqualmie Falls, then back. Here are the pics we took: http://www.flickr.com/photos/11740720@N04/
One of the Stupidest Things I’ve Ever Said…

I Shut Up A Group of LoudMouth 15-year-old Girls In The Movie Theater Today…
By Sherryness | August 23, 2008
…. ask me how.
Actually, you don’t have to ask, I’ll just tell you.
There were about 3 or 4 of them, and they were talking through the previews and into the beginning of the movie in a normal-to-loud voice about anything and everything. You would have thought they were in a mall or or something. A couple of people were shushing them, but they were shushing right back and continuing to talk.
Finally, at a quiet moment in the movie, I said (in a voice loud enough for the whole theater to hear, in my sternest “mom voice”), “This is NOT your living room.” I made sure to say it with directness and not anger.
One of them said, “Sorry…” and not a word was heard from them the whole rest of the movie. It goes with my theory of being direct but not angry at people and fighting with strength but without malice.
Oh, and the movie? “The Dark Knight.” hehe…. I felt like Batman! 
hahahaha…
Well, There’s A Surprise . . .
By Sherryness | August 22, 2008
I’m so excited about a potential Obama-Biden win, it’s made me realize that George W. getting re-elected caused me to be truly depressed! At least about politics and the future - it actually disillusioned me a great deal. I’m actually surprised at how optimistic I am about this election!
Biden Is Obama VP Choice
By Sherryness | August 22, 2008
Joe Biden is Barrack Obama’s vice president choice, at least according to my word-puzzle logic. The last names are perfect for each other:
OBAMA
BIDEN
Barrack Obama’s last name is 5 letters which are vowel-consonant-vowel-consonant-vowel
and
Joe Biden’s last name is 5 letters which are consonant-vowel-consonant-vowel-consonat
It’s perfect! It’s brilliant! Of course, I love word searches, poetry and cryptograms more than just about anything, so who can say there is really anything to the Biden Obama vice president choice, thing.
But it makes sense to me….
Tornado Video - Massive - E5??? Manitoba Canada
By Sherryness | August 22, 2008
This is, bar none, the most amazing tornado vidoe I have ever seen. It has to be an E5 (or higher, if there was a higher classification???)??? It’s massive to begin with - at least an E5 tornado video. Then the people doing the video of the tornado are SO CLOSE to it, I can’t believe it.
Toward the end, you can see the base of it so clearly, that you can see several little tornados coming out of the base of it. This is a nightmare - unbelievable - and so unbelievable that they got this huge tornado on video. This has to be an e5 tornado - I mean - at one point in the video they say it has 6 tornadoes coming out of the base of it. I am amazed, intrigued, appalled, aghast, in awe…..
Watch for yourself - E5 Tornado video Manitoba Canada: (very scary - unfortunately it sounds like Will Ferrell is narrating…):
Well That Was A Shot to the Head…
By Sherryness | August 21, 2008
Today Charlie and I were walking in Redmond Town Center and we passed a 60s-ish lady who was sitting on a bench. Charlie looked at her and said, “What’s YOUR name???” (as he is wont to do, with just about anyone…)
And she said, “My name is Grandma Linda; what’s your name?”
Ouch. On September 20 of this year it will be 14 years since my Mom, Linda Kay, passed away. But things like this can still make me cry. She would have loved Charlie and loved being a Grandma….
“Grandma Linda…”
Wow….
Ok, Mr. Obama, Who’s It Going To Be?

I’m waiting for my txt…..
